I think that JRodan brought up the plain fact that, in his opinion, the Word of Wisdom, although a good 'doctrine' to teach...

I wonder why you think that when he explicity stated the contrary.

He, falsely, claimed that the WoW has been debunked in most regards. In fact, it has not. The observable fact of the matter is that Utah is the or amoung the leading states in most every single measure of health. And, mostly where they are not, the likely culprit is lack of WoW observance.

Sorry Snow...you're right on the ball there...once again I'm putting words/ideas into other people's mouths/heads, by forgetting the first part of their thread and concentrating on the latter bits!! :D

Anybody got a stone I can crawl under???? :(

Oh come now Maureen,

I make a post that says X and you immediately post what on the surface seems to be contra-X. What else could it be if not a rebuttal attempt? Once digs below the surface and finds that the suicide rate is much better (less) for Utah Mormons than it is for non-Mormon Utahns one finds that your post supports my argument, but that wasn't your intent. Your intent in posting about suicide was to show that my post were'nt necessarily so.

Incidently, antedoctal evidence, (I once knew this guy and he said...) is pert near the worst evidence you can git.

I am wondering, just now, exactly what Leonard J. Arrington's personal perspective was. He sounds more like an apologist than anything else, in that he seems to be giving a lot of "corroborative evidence" for the beliefs and practices associated with that section 89 utterance, more than anything else.

You saying he is or sound apologetic, by which you mean as opposed to scholarly and unbiased, is a far cry from showing that he is not scholarly and that he is biased.

Care to try?

geograhpy amoung RJordan seperate

Its part of what makes us a seperate and distinct people.

And here I am, all those many moons having shone on my pretty face, with the misconception that it was there extraordinary spelling skills that made them so exceedingly special!

Here's a general rule of thumb: To avoid looking like a pretentious buffoon, when insulting someone for their careless spelling, make sure to proof your insult.

Gleeking shardbait.

What?! And not leaf you with something to come back with? Woof, woof.

:lol: Anyone else getting profanity-laden messages from JRodan, or has it just got a crush on me? Must be recess at the daycare. :lol:

You are so funny. Why are you making this stuff up about me. Don't YOU love your neighbors as you love yourself?

Oooo! That would work if I hadn't saved a copy of the thread...and reported the posts. Sorry man. :(

Maybe you can take back the PM as well, huh?

Hate to burst your intention grabbing bubble Snow but, it's true. But I will remember next time when I read one of your posts to see what I can do about finding a rebuttal just to make you feel loved and wanted. ;)

To the actual grownups here, don't worry, the offending posts will be gone soon.

EDIT: In fact, he's editing them as we speak. Too little too late. ;) And there's still the PM... :o

I came to this thread late and have only observed 14 of Outshined's posts in a row; which gives me the impression he's talking to himself. ;) I don't think deleting JRodan's posts gives the thread a comprehensible quality, if you know what I mean.

Something witty comes to mind here, but in the interests of not offending you, I'll keep it to myself. :D Actually, those who missed the filth didn't miss anything they would want to save for posterity, so don't worry that you may have missed the exact date and time of the second coming. What little I saw before the scrubbing began was bad enough that I had to wash my eyes and hands and sing hymns for 3 hours to afterward to remove from my mind.

Fine, have it your way. I don't need you to argue. I can argue with anyone. Watch me.
